Description
We present a 108-fs Kerr-lens-modelocked, diode-pumped 1-GHz Tisapphire laser. Self-starting operation producing 103 mW was obtained for 1-Watt pumping with a single 520-nm laser diode. From 1 Hz1 MHz the relative intensity noise was 0.01 and the repetition rate was externally referenced with a phase error of 1.7 mrad.
